<p>What you listen to says a lot about what kind of person you are: just look at the interest generated by <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/jun/25/barackobama.uselections2008">Barack Obama's iPod playlist</a>. The same logic applies to TV shows – and no show has more taste than Mad Men. So the release of playlists for seven of the show's main characters – Betty Draper, Don Draper, Salvatore Romano, Roger Sterling, Joan Harris, Peggy Olson and Pete Campbell – is revealing. </p><p>Five songs have been picked for each character and you can listen to samples on the <a href="http://www.amctv.com/originals/madmen/cast/">characters' profile pages on the Mad Men website</a>. The songs are designed to be a musical dialogue among the characters – Don Draper's choice of Misery by Barrett Strong appears to be a response to wife Betty's Too Many Secrets by Patsy Cline. Others give a nod to plotlines in the drama: I'll Be Seeing You by Liberace is on Sal's playlist. </p> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/media/pda/2009/oct/28/mad-men-am-radio-playlists">Continue reading...</a>Digital mediaMediaMad MenMusicUS televisionUS television industryTelevisionTelevision & radioPlaylistsWed, 28 Oct 2009 14:32:27 GMThttp://www.theguardian.com/media/pda/2009/oct/28/mad-men-am-radio-playlistsPhotograph: Public DomainMad Men: Don Draper's playlist includes Misery by Barrett Strong and Smoke Gets In Your Eyes by the PlattersPhotograph: Public DomainMad Men: Don Draper's playlist includes Misery by Barrett Strong and Smoke Gets In Your Eyes by the PlattersMercedes Bunz2009-10-28T14:32:27Z
